God is able

The Hebrew boys and the fiery furnish teach us a couple of important lessons.

Daniel 3:19-20 - - Then Nebuchadnezzar was filled with fury, and the expression of his face was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. He ordered the furnace heated seven times more than it was usually heated. And he ordered some of the mighty men of his army to tie Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to throw them into the burning fiery furnace.

Life always throws obstacles and difficulties that seem hard to handle and impossible to get over. As situations happen, you ask yourself when and if it will ever end, how you got into the mess, why you got into the mess, and if this is the end of your life. When things happen, life seems hard, and your enemies turn up the heat.. DO NOT give up on your God, compromise your beliefs, value, and most importantly HAVE FAITH that YOUR GOD will see you to the end of the problem and on top of it

When life doesn't make any sense, DO no cry, be afraid, get confused, give in to the devil, or look for help in the wrong places. YOU have to respond the same way the Hebrew boys did to the King

Daniel 3:16-18 -- Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered and said to the king, "O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter. If this be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of your hand, O king. But if not, be it known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up."

Remember your tongue has the power of life and death, SO You need to speak with your mouth, have faith, and trust and know that God is able to deliver you from anything and out of the hands of those that try to oppress you. In the end, God will bring you out the way no one expects... UNHARMED and UNBOUND

God said he will never leave you nor forsake, so remember that as you go through, HE IS RIGHT THERE WITH YOU

Daniel 3:25 - - He answered and said, "But I see four men unbound, walking in the midst of the fire, and they are not hurt; and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods."

ALWAYS remember that you will come out, and while it looks like you are going to come out of the mess hurt, oppressed, bitter... GOD will not let that happen. YOu will come out the way God wants you to come out... NOT the way you want to. THe reason some of us come out bitter and angry is because of we have not e mbraced the lesson God wanted to teach or the things God wanted to show us while we were going through.

Daniel 3:27 -- And the satraps, the prefects, the governors, and the king’s counselors gathered together and saw that the fire had not had any power over the bodies of those men. The hair of their heads was not singed, their cloaks were not harmed, and no smell of fire had come upon them.

OUR GOD IS ABLEand i believe Daniel said it best when he said "He reveals deep and hidden things; he knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him." Daniel 2:22
